IMAGE ARMOR F-SERIES CONVERSION INSTRUCTIONS AND MAINTENANCE INFORMATION FOR MORE INFORMATION VISIT www.imagearmorpt.com F-SERIES CONVERSION INSTRUCTIONS The F-SERIES inks are designed to replace the OEM ink set for the Epson F-2000 Direct To Garment printer. These inks are designed with high performance capabilities, 35 second white ink cure time with as close a match to the original OEM inks as possible at a more affordable operating cost per cartridge. The cartridges are remanufactured cartridges, Made in the USA and are NOT manufactured by Epson. Each cartridge is 600mL in size. A complete flushing of the white and CMYK ink lines is required. We DO NOT recommend inter-mixing Image Armor and OEM inks due to inter-compatibility issues. Only use Image Armor F-SERIES inks as a complete set (W1+W2+CMYK). WHAT YOU WILL NEED: - 6 Qty – Standard Epson F2000 Cleaning Cartridge - 700 ml - FULL Set of Image Armor F-Series inks including: o White 1 and a White 2 (Slot 1 / Slot 2) o Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black o Bottle of Image Armor CLEANING SOLUTION (red label) o Bottle of Image Armor CAPPING STATION SOLUTION o Syringe (which you should already have for ECO Tube Flushing) STEP-BY-STEP-INSTRUCTIONS 1.
